Mill & Main is a barber shop on East Main Street in the heart of Lexington, owned and run by the barbers who cut your hair. We pair old-school barbering with modern fades and styles. Our team includes master barbers and stylists with decades of experience behind the chair. Every visit starts with a custom-cut consultation. Straight razor shaves get a hot towel and warm lather, the classic way. We speak English and Spanish, and everyone gets the same welcome, from a first cut to a regular cleanup. Book online to see today's open times.

Men's Haircuts in Lexington, SC

The Classic Haircut is shaped to how you wear your hair. That covers scissor cuts, military cuts, buzz cuts and custom cuts. Want a big change in length? Ask for the Transformation Haircut. Add a shampoo with a scalp massage and a conditioner rinse. The Mill & Main Special adds a shoulder massage and a precision beard trim. Eyebrow trimming comes with any haircut at no extra charge.

Fade Haircuts in Lexington, SC

We do a lot of fades, from a classic fade to a bald fade. Your barber blends from skin to length for a clean, crisp look. Bald fades are finished with a foil shaver or a straight razor. The result is almost the same. The straight razor version adds a hot steamed towel. A fade that isn't blended is the most common fix we see.

Kids' Haircuts in Lexington, SC

We love our kids, and there's no minimum age. We'll do whatever makes a little one comfortable. If that means cutting on the couch or the floor, we will. Parents say Tara made a two-year-old's cut fun and relaxed. The only time we stop is if a child is thrashing, because that isn't safe around sharp tools. Book the Kid's Classic Haircut online.

  • Go in a mess and come out clean. Everyone is so nice and just an awesome environment to be in. 11/10 I need to grow more hair so I can come back again.

  • I've been coming to Tara for 15 years, and there's a reason I keep coming back! Now she's at Mill and Main Barbershop and we won't go anywhere else . The service is always great, the cuts are consistently on point, and they've always made us feel like family. It's hard to find a place you can trust for that long, but she has earned every one of these five stars. Highly recommend!

  • Greatest shop in Lexington and Columbia. By far! Classic setup, great Barbers, friendly service, and expert level haircuts. They know what they are doing and enjoy doing it. Great atmosphere. Lots of friendly banter. They offer appointments that work with most any schedule. Tara has been cutting my hair for years but I wouldn't hesitate to let anyone in the shop cut my hair. Highly recommend!

Hot Towel & Straight Razor Shaves in Lexington, SC

This is the classic barbershop shave. Choose the Straight Razor Full Facial Shave or the Straight Razor Head Shave. Both start with a hot steamed towel and warm lather. Then your barber shaves you smooth with a straight razor. Before any shave, we greet you, cape you and talk it through. One client called it "the best shave I've ever had."
